The best Christmas present

GIFTS:

I'm excited for Christmas! ARE YOU EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS?! Yosh. So, I love you all so much, and truly want you to have a fantastic Christmas as a present to me. For those hoping for a more material list... Other than instant potatoes, I can't think of anything I want for Christmas. But, there is an request that I have for all of you:

Please do not send clothes, more than six ounces of candy/sugar (unless they are box cake/cookie mixes), large, bulky items that cannot fit into one of my three suitcases with the rest of my possessions, pets, electronic devices, books or other entertainment that goes far beyond that of the Chinese finger trap or Rubik’s cube, etc.

Truly the best present that I can receive from you is an email telling me about how wonderful your Christmas was and the presents that you received and the Light of Christ that you shared :)

If you really want to go out of your way, read the Book of Mormon. Whether it's your first or fifteenth time. If you've already been around the Book of Mormon block, try reading a new copy and highlight

1.) God's, Christ's, or the Holy Ghost's name.
2.) Shows or references of Christlike love.

And decide how you will apply them in your own life. I'd love to talk about it with y'all when I get back!

Also, found a new FANTA flavor!!! Fruit punch! I don't normally like fruit punch, but it looks really good.

I'll send you a weekly update later. Love you!
